      I’ve already switched my mom and grandma to Linux, and I’ve personally only got 1 PC still on Windows. Its days are numbered though.

        The only PC we have with Windows is my wife’s, and that’s because she plays an anti-cheat game. My desktop, laptop, NAS, and Steam Deck all run Linux.

          Mine that’s still on Windows is while I’m transitioning away from Lightroom.

          It’s the only thing left at this point that’s holding me there.

          I would just dual boot a system for when I need to use it but I really wanna stop using Adobe software for a number of reasons.

            I don’t know anything about Lightroom or what similar software would be, so unfortunately I won’t be much help. But I hope you can find a decent alternative.

              Basically Lightroom is for editing photos in a specific format, there’s a couple alternatives that work well on Linux. Primarily Darktable and RawTherapee.

              It’s really good at what it does and is basically an industry standard.

              But Adobe being Adobe I really want to stop giving them money but I need to replace it first.
